Refrigerator Features
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
This manual covers several different models. The refrigerator you have
purchased may have some or all of the items listed. The locations of the
features may not match those of your model.
Refrigerator Shelves
Store similar foods together and adjust the shelves to fit different
heights. This reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and saves
energy.
To Remove and Replace a Shelf:
1. Remove the shelf by lifting straight up, and pulling the shelf out.
2. Replace the shelf by lowering the shelf onto the supports on the
side wall.
Crispers and Meat Drawers
To Remove and Replace a Drawer:
1. Slide drawer straight out to the stop. Lift the front of the drawer and
slide it out the rest of the way.
2. Replace a drawer by sliding it back in fully past the stop.
Meat Storage Guide
Store most meat in original wrapping as long as it is airtight and
moisture-proof. Rewrap if necessary. See the following chart for storage
times. When storing meat longer than the times given, freeze the meat.
Fresh fish or shellfish .......................... use same day as purchased
Chicken, ground beef, variety meats (liver)........................ 1-2 days
Cold cuts, steaks/roasts..................................................... 3-5 days

Leftovers - Cover leftovers with plastic wrap, aluminum foil, or place in
containers with tight fitting lids.

Crisper Humidity Control
You can adjust the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper
using the settings between "+" and "-".
"-" (open) lets moist air out of the crisper for best storage of fruits and
vegetables with skins.

Do not wash or hull berries until they are ready to use. Sort and
keep berries in original container in crisper.
Vegetables with skins: Place in plastic bag or plastic container and
store in crisper.
"+" (closed) keeps moist air in the crisper for best storage of fresh, leafy
vegetables.

container and store in crisper.
